Still looking for a Pogonomyrmex Rugosus queen =/ Tons of colonies where I live here in West Texas. Just didn't catch the nuptial flight, I guess. *sad face*

 

 

So yeah, anyone got a Pogonomyrmex Rugosus queen near Midland, TX? Will travel for it! Haha.

I quite enjoy my local species and have kept, or currently keep, all of the species that really interest me.

That being said, I would collect a Pogonomyrmex queen if I ever stumbled across one.

I would love a larger species of ant native to my area, so far my only ants are absolutely tiny, and although I love them I have always wanted to try caring for a large ant species

Myrmecia and iridomyrmex purpureus. Myrmecia may need some special attention though as I believe they are semi-claustral.

Man, you like the interesting ants you see on the news, don't you :D

 

I am interested in Solenopsis(hence my username), Myrmecocystus, and Acromyrmex.

Trachymyrmex septentrionalis. Last year people were posting about finding these on Long Island.  I'm on the other side of the state, but state lines are state lines!
